Back in December I covered Hershey’s fun new holiday seasonal offering; the candy cane-flavored Hershey bar<\/a>.\u00a0 I thought that bar featured an elegant and appealing wrapper design as well as being a pretty tasty offering to boot.\u00a0 For Halloween this year, they’re offering another bar with another unusual holiday-themed flavor featuring the same packaging style.\u00a0 This time it’s Hershey’s Candy Corn!<\/p>\n

While the candy cane Hershey’s offerings from last Christmas came in full-size bars, thus far I’ve only encountered the candy corn variety as part of a snack-size multi-pack.\u00a0 Here’s what the package looks like:<\/p>\n

As I mentioned back in December with the candy cane release, for me what makes these so appealing is how they take the tried-and-true Hershey bar look but give it a bit of color and fun.\u00a0 Here’s one of the individual snack size bar wrappers:<\/p>\n

For those that don’t recall exactly what the Hershey’s Candy Cane bars<\/a> look like, I put together this side-by-side comparison shot:<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the actual candy corn graphic is found only on the large multi-bag and not on the individual snack size wrappers. \u00a0 That makes me hope we’ll eventually get a full-size bar release for Hershey’s Candy Corn – if not this year, perhaps in 2015.\u00a0\u00a0 Heck, I’d love to see them use this format for a continuing series of unusually-flavored Hershey bar releases.\u00a0 It’d be great to be able to have a whole assortment of oddball-flavor Hershey seasonal wrappers to collect (and fun flavors to try).\u00a0 Just imagine what else they could do?<\/p>\n

And that’s everything I’ve got to share on Hershey’s new candy corn-flavored bar for Halloween.<\/p>\n

See you next time!<\/p>\n
